<html> <head> <style></style> </head> <body class='hmmessage'> Hi.... For those of you who would like to attend the OLPC-SF Community Summit in San Francisco in October (see below for more info) here is the link to the Southwest Airlines site with their current sale.  Thursday is the last day to book.  Not all airports are included in the sale... for example, LAX is, but nearby BUR (Burbank) is not.  If they have a sale fare anywhere near you, it is worth going a little further to take advantage of it.  (Example I bought tickets for SFO-LAX in early Dec for $59 each.  BUR would have been closer to home but $135-165 each).<div><br></div><div>Wish I could go.... but I will be out of state that weekend. Alas!</div><div>Caryl<br><br><hr id="stopSpelling">Date: Thu, 5 Aug 2010 12:43:46 -0400<br>From: holt@laptop.org<br>To: caryl@laptop.org<br>Subject: Re: [support-gang] [IAEP] OLPC-SF Community Summit Oct 22-24 -- highlighting Sugar Labs / Realness<br><br> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=unicode"> <meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft SafeHTML"> Can you explain this to <a class="ecxmoz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:olpc-socal@laptop.org">olpc-socal@laptop.org</a> before it's too late?!<br> <br> :)<br> <br> Caryl Bigenho wrote: <blockquote cite="mid:SNT110-W147FB141D34030D306E5D0CC900@phx.gbl"> <style> .ExternalClass .ecxhmmessage P {padding:0px;} .ExternalClass body.ecxhmmessage {font-size:10pt;font-family:Tahoma;} </style>Alas!  There were several weekends under consideration.  This is the only one I couldn't make.
